Challenges in Motor Vehicle Safety [PDF]
Annual Review of Public Health, 2002 ▪ Abstract Reductions in motor vehicle injury and death represent a major public health success. Since the advent of the federal program in highway safety in 1966, motor vehicle deaths have dropped dramatically, not only in rates per miles driven but also in absolute numbers.

Driving Environment Uncertainty-Aware Motion Planning for Autonomous Vehicles
Chinese Journal of Mechanical Engineering, 2022 Autonomous vehicles require safe motion planning in uncertain environments, which are largely caused by surrounding vehicles. In this paper, a driving environment uncertainty-aware motion planning framework is proposed to lower the risk of position ...

Rollover Prevention and Motion Planning for an Intelligent Heavy Truck
Chinese Journal of Mechanical Engineering, 2021 It is very necessary for an intelligent heavy truck to have the ability to prevent rollover independently. However, it was rarely considered in intelligent vehicle motion planning. To improve rollover stability, a motion planning strategy with autonomous
